  1. :ohmy:hi everyone i wish i had had mine in mexico its so much cheaper, some doctors are now charging as low 5500 dollars for the surgery. i paid 13500 with 1yr free fills wich i have had only 3 in 1yr. i would go for mexico if i could do it all over. do your research on the doctor and you should be ok with mexico.
